Talking about disruption of the abandoned interiors, the visitors making staged photos were probably the worst kind of such vermin's of the zone.

Does an abandoned school classroom actually look more haunting if some moron put a gas mask on the desk?

I would have to agree, but I just take photos as I find the location. I'm a photographer and not a set designer. But again I agree.

The best photos taken were from the early 90s. Before going to Chernobyl was a thing people thought it would make them interesting for doing.

There many gripping places there, seeing the kindergarten sucked.

The number of dolls and teddy bears in Pripyat that people have carried in to stage stuff is just insane, if you watch a tour of the kindergarten from like 10 years ago you may see one or two dolls now there is thousands, same for gas masks.

I want to see the face of the bear without the mask

As a fellow photographer, I really didn't want to post any criticism to this shot, but between the over-the-top port-processing, and the pre-arranged props, this is not a kind of Pripyat/Zone shots I's like to see.
